Ella Emhoff Reflects on Post-Election Life and Global Anxieties

Los Angeles, CA – In a candid social media post, Ella Emhoff, stepdaughter of Vice President Kamala Harris, offered a personal reflection on the past four years, including her experiences under Secret Service protection and the aftermath of recent elections. Speaking from Los Angeles, Emhoff shared her feelings of disgust and fear regarding various global issues, including what she described as "genocides," the erosion of rights, healthcare access, and general affordability. She specifically highlighted her struggle with "climate anxiety," noting that many others share this sentiment. Emhoff emphasized the importance of individual action and engagement in "small politics." "Engaging in small politics is really important," she stated, encouraging viewers to participate in activities like canvassing and phone banking. She cited recent political shifts in New York as an example of how collective efforts can create a "ripple effect." The artist and designer also touched upon the challenges she faced, including a false rumor that she was in a mental hospital after the election, which she clarified stemmed from a photo of her crying. She expressed gratitude for her "Soft Hands Knit Club" community and the renewed sense of connection with friends, which she described as a source of comfort and grounding after a period of intense public scrutiny. Emhoff concluded by urging her audience to "keep making your voices loud" and to "keep up the hope," asserting that normalizing current societal issues is not an option.
